"Stewart pursues every path to plumb the depths of his character's inner lives. We see the foundational strength of love and the taxation it imposes. We see all the bonds of family, generational conflict, and responsibility. Regular people laid bare by tragedy and time but buoyed by memory doubling back and carrying hope. These dazzling stories break but mend your heart even stronger. I loved every moment spent in this world."- Devin Murphy, national bestselling author of The Boat Runner and Tiny Americans

"In the midst of the precarious world she artfully creates, a steady, enduring love breaks through-"love/ that could free us from reading the world/so closely." In this collection, Melinda Wolf conveys this quest for love in times of darkness in startling lines you will want to read again and again." Miriam Pederson

"Hilary Sideris's new book, The Inclination to Make Waves, is full of linguistic tricks, lively metaphysics, and shades of amorous play that range from joyous, to coy, to melancholy. In these poems - all of them tight couplets of five or six stanzas - she's alert to the nuances of sound and sense, tweaking idioms, teasing out strands of etymology, making the full range of language operative in the moment of the poem. Inspired by each poem's title-word, she seizes on its linguistic possibilities, to build from a word the world." - Neil Shepard

"The poems of Bain-Marie counter diffusion with distillation, and loss with creation, insisting that any "domestic alchemy" humans have invented to preserve our vision and experience is a form of art. Subtly, magically, Jordan's poems make us aware of poetry as the most beguiling domestic alchemy of all, an uncanny medium impregnable with what is otherwise ephemeral: our histories and desires. There's a wonderful iridescence to the voices Jordan creates. Though longing beats within her speakers like a pulse, they are also alert, analytical, skeptical, and self-aware. For these artists, success is less important than the striving to create, and so they show a fierce, protective tenderness toward the follies of making. Poems that ingather and interweave many planes of time, forms of wisdom, and spiritual practices are ones I most admire; in this book, permeated through and through with lore, ancient and modern alchemies, humor-and humours-I find immense nourishment and delight." - Karen Holmberg

New Poetry from Big Wonderful Press "I'm so very thankful for these poems, for the way they have opened my heart, how honest they are, how they do not turn away from the ugly or try and make a hero out of the poet, or indeed out of the reader. M.K. Sukach has written a little book that will, I promise, help you survive the big, bad, world." -Matthew Dickman

"Jen Karetnick's eloquent Landscaping for Wildlife reconnects us to the natural world with a lyrical intelligence and beauty that is at once revelatory, empathetic, personal and political. These rich, inventive poems bind contemporary physical and emotional landscapes through a masterful and meticulous command of the range of ancient and modern poetic forms, which makes them timeless. And unforgettable." -Diane Goodman, author of the newly released Party Girls (Autumn House Press) and The Plated Heart and The Genius of Hunger (Carnegie Mellon University Press).
